The big decision of the competition will be played on the same day and place, but from 4 pm (Brasília time). Even facing a depleted Real Madrid (since it did not count on important names like the French striker Benzema, the Belgian goalkeeper Courtois and the Brazilian defender Éder Militão), Al Ahly started the semifinal game in a very cautious way, closing in on defense and allowing the Spanish team to keep the ball. At first, the attitude paid off, as the Merengues created little. However, time passed and the Egyptians started to leave more for the game, offering spaces for Real to attack more effectively. Thus, the first Spanish goal came just before the break. In the 41st minute, Metwaly missed the domain and Vinícius Júnior took the opportunity to leave at speed and hit for coverage to score a beautiful goal.

In the 19th minute, Al Ahly scored with a penalty kick by Maaloul, but the Spanish team scored twice more (with Rodrygo in the 46th minute and Arribas in the 52nd minute) to confirm their place in the big decision.
